I'm worried about my risk of cancer because I'm not even certain about this, but I think my aunty had cancer at a young age on my dad's side... so not my mum's sister but my dad's (probably doesn't matter which side?)
Basically was just watching a programme ans they were making someone do the test to see if they are likely to get cancer, and I would like to do that test... I'm just worried that I've got a high risk. scared of knowing if i've got a high risk cos i dunno what /in what detail these tests actually tell you etc too?
I'm getting the feeling ,somehow not sure why, that if she did have it (Bear in mind i'm not 100% certain she did, but if i was completely sure she didn't I wouldn't be saying this stuff) then it was breast cancer, and my gran had breast cancer and therefore I'm assuming it was breast cancer my grans sister had also (I don't know about her other sister but would have been worrying if it was also cancer if she was young) with my gran, through my life anyway they always had each other (her sister) but I don't know when her other sister had died... which basically means that may be the most common or most likely, I do know it is in general anyway.
I'm so angry at my old doctors as i think they were useless, they put me on the pill which has a risk of cancer, even though I clearly already have a risk of cancer anyway... they never once asked if I had a risk they just dished them out (it was the cilest pill if anyone wonders) I took it for probably about a year or more, will my risk have gone up from taking it for this time? nonetheless I would not wish to take it again now I realise how stupid I was being (just so i could have sex basically id rather risk getting pregnant and having awful period pain!!!!)
Does anyone else worry? should I be worried considering what I think I know about my aunty?
